Handmade Wooden Rosary - Defender Duo Design

Garrett,
Thank you so much for your honest feedback. If you are thinking these things, there's a good chance other customers are, too. Let me do my best to address them:
1. Most important, we want you to love your product. If you don't, we'll gladly accept a return and full refund. No questions asked.
2. You are correct, we did raise our prices recently. When we first started, I was making all the rosaries and wasn't factoring in my own labor. Our recent price changes reflect the cost of running a Catholic Business with employees and operating costs. We will never artificially create a price based on demand.
3. In regards to sturdiness. You are correct, wood beads aren't heavy. It's not a factor of quality, they just don't weigh much. I'll look at ways to communicate weight and size more accurately on the website. You aren't the first person to share similar feedback. If you want a heavy rosary, no one makes a heftier rosary than our good friend Andrew over at Holy Armament. If you just want a rosary that won't break, you have it in your hands. If our rosary breaks we'll replace it or re-string it no questions asked.
4. We believe the rosary is the most powerful spiritual weapon in the world so naturally we use the highest quality materials in the world. Where we weren't satisfied with the best available, we started making our own...see our Terror of Demons centerpiece as an example.

I hope this information is helpful, and again we're happy to offer a full refund if you don't love it. Thanks again for the honest feedback. It really helps keep us honest!!

To Jesus through Mary,
Jonathan
